Donald Trump has retweeted a fake clip showing Democratic nominee Joe Biden blasting N.W.A’s F*ck tha Police from his phone. Twitter was quick to add the “manipulated media” tag to the tweet.
“What is this all about?” Trump wrote when he retweeted the video, which saw Biden at an event in Florida where he used his phone to play a song. The song that was actually played was Luis Fonsi’s Despacito. Biden played the hit after he was introduced on stage by Fonsi.
Biden shared the live-streamed version of the event on Twitter, explaining he was kicking off Hispanic Heritage Month at the Florida visit.
The Trump campaign team is no stranger to the “manipulated media” tag. Previously, White House deputy chief Dan Scavino retweeted a fake video that showed Biden falling asleep during an interview on live TV.

The video replaces the @LuisFonsi song @JoeBiden actually played on his phone with one from #NWA. How do I know this? I was in the room for the Hispanic event in Osceola County, #Florida.

Just to make it double clear, I was at this event hours ago, and the song was Despacito. (Obviously this video is doctored.) https://t.co/kyr28wN2Ax
